"And God sent the south wind to cool the land." Sometimes you use punctuation - sometimes not? One line I got stuck on (didn't flow) 'then west you swing brings rain released' how about 'swinging west the rains you release' that would rhyme as well? I know how passionate you are about praising the Lord.

    I guess I'll have to disagree with you Kaye, musically it scans beautifully, but thanks for the great review and comments, Roy,

I like this song about the wind or the holy spirit as it refers to. Good word flow and rhyming make it a neat poem with a neat message.

This is written very nicely. I had read part 1, and I was happy to see part 2. I love how you quote sections of the Bible, referring to your poem. Your photo attached is just perfect. Best wishes to you!

Beautiful reflections here on 'the breath of God', the Holy Spirit, I especially liked the phrase...'Oh breath of wind, you're like the sea...who keeps it filled, who makes it be?'...such mysteries are only His...I loved this...Blessings...Judy

Oh breath of God that moves my soul
who opens eyes and makes me whole
please dwell with me, forever stay,
In sun or storm, in night and day.

This verse alone, is the most inspiring and beautiful, I have read and reviewed in quite sometime. Thank you Roy, for this wonderful poem.
Love, tell Elaine hello, we are getting ready to go west again soon.
:-) Carolyn

really nice, really nice!
Just one question Roy, in the first verse:

Oh little wind who bids you rise,
do unseen hands mould width and size,
You've changed, and blow now from the east,
then west you swing brings rain released

did you mean:

Oh little wind who bids you rise,
to unseen hands mould width and size,
You've changed, and blow now from the east,
then west you swing brings rain released

The only reason I say this is I don't understand the flow on
from the first line, if the second line starts with a question?
but when I change it the second line then doesn't work so I am a bit confused otherwise its a great song.

just curious or totally ignorant, I am one or the other lol

with respect, dipster

Enjoyed the poem. A wonderful metaphor. This has great rhythm and rhyme. Favorite stanza is:
Are you friend or are you foe,
will you howl or gently blow,
will you let me see your face,
or run away without a trace?

Hi Roy,

I six star love this second part, my friend. The last stanza so ties it all up in a bow. Such a wonderful message in this. The artwork is awesome and compliments your work.

Well done!

Cheers & Blessings
Keep Smilin'... Jackie

A very enjoyable read. Smiles, Robin :)

This worship song, addressing the Holy Spirit, but yet, giving full glory to the Father is inspiring. The rhyme and meter are even and flowing as a song should be. It would very nice to hear this with its melody.
